An official with the ministry says that Aisha Gadhafi gave birth in Algiers on Tuesday. The official provided no other information, including on where she gave birth. The official was not authorized to be publicly named according to ministry rules.

The Algerian Foreign Ministry confirmed that Gadhafi's wife Safia, his sons Hannibal and Mohammed, and his daughter Aisha entered southern Algeria from the Libyan border Monday.
